When Chen Meng heard Tao Qian asking him if he had any good ideas to capture Jixian, he was about to answer. Unexpectedly, the scouts he had sent to Jixian to investigate came back, came to the house, panted heavily, and said:
"Reporting to Mr. Chen, there is not a single traitor in Jixian City and they are missing."
When Chen Meng heard this, he felt a little strange.
"Besides, are there any other abnormalities in the city?"
"Nothing unusual. It's just that there is some chaos in the city. It seems that the rebels are in a hurry to leave."
"The rebels left in a hurry? Could it be that the rebels escaped?" Tao Qian was a little confused after hearing the scout's report.
Others also had the same doubts as Tao Qian at this time. They couldn't figure out for a moment what the rebel did.
Not long after, another scout came to report:
"Reporting to Mr. Chen, the rebels in Ji County have gone to Changping in the north."
"Going to Changping? Seriously?" Chen Meng felt a little incredible.
"It's true. Those rebels looted all the food and property in Ji County and took the property to Changping."
"Did the rebels really escape?" Liu Bei said with a slight frown.
"Haha! The rebels have escaped, let's rush to Jixian as soon as possible!" Tao Qian was very happy after he was sure that the rebels had escaped.
"Oh! Big brother, fourth brother, this time you two have robbed me of the battle that I, Yide, should fight. Next time we fight, I, Zhang Yide, must be the vanguard."
"Haha! I, Guan Yu, also want to be a pioneer."
"Haha! Okay, okay, from now on, Gonggan and I will no longer fight with you two, that's all."
"Hey! It seems that my plan to capture Jixian is useless." Chen Meng said teasingly.
"Haha, Xuande, in that case, we will rush to Jixian immediately." After Tao Qian finished speaking, he stood up and walked out.
"promise!"
Jixian County, the seat of Youzhou. Before the Yellow Turban rebels entered the city, the city was prosperous and stable. But since the rebels entered the city, they burned, killed, and looted with all possible means. Especially when the rebels in the city learned that Guangyang City was occupied
After the three hundred officers and soldiers broke through, they intensified their search for money and food. Then they left with the money and food they had plundered.
After Tao Qian led his troops into Jixian County and saw the scene in the city, he cursed these eighteen generations of rebels in his heart.
For the current plan, the first step is to restore the normal life of the residents in Ji County. However, this matter is not too difficult for Tao Qian.
Tao Qian, Liu Bei and his party were discussing the matter of reassuring the people at the governor's mansion. Unexpectedly, the soldiers guarding the city gate suddenly ran in and said that an army was coming to Jixian.
When everyone heard this, they were surprised.
"Could it be that the rebels are coming again?" Tao Qian said hurriedly.
"Don't be anxious, Governor. I will lead the three brothers to the city gate. Fourth brother, let's go."
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei had no interest in reassuring the people, so they were not here at this time. After Liu Bei finished speaking, he stood up and prepared to leave.
"If the rebels dare to attack the city, they will never come back." Chen Meng said to Tao Qian.
When Guan Yu and Zhang Fei heard that someone was about to attack the city, they were also a little surprised, but they were even more happy.
"Haha! None of you are allowed to compete with me, Zhang Fei, this time. I, Zhang Fei, am determined to be the vanguard."
"The same goes for me, Guan Yu."
"Second brother..."
While the four brothers were talking, they came to the city wall from inside the city. Standing on the city wall, they looked outside the city and saw that thousands of cavalry were lined up outside the city. The people on the horses looked very strong.
Moreover, Kong was very powerful, and each of his horses was extremely sturdy.
At the front of these thousands of horses, there is a row of pure white horses. They are all white, without any stray hairs, and shining as if they are covered with silver. The people on the horses each carry a strong bow and a crossbow on their shoulders.
, there are multiple quivers on both sides of the horses. It is obvious at a glance that these people riding white horses must be good archers. In the middle of this row of white horses, there is an extremely splendid war horse, and the people on the horse are
He holds a double-headed iron spear, wears bright white armor, and wears a bright white helmet. Under the sunshine of autumn, he emits bursts of cold light.
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were all very excited after seeing this cavalry. Chen Meng looked at the two men and immediately understood that they must have been attracted by the horses under the city.
"White horse, a man who is good at shooting. Could it be that he is a loyal follower of white horse?" Chen Meng suddenly thought of the origin of this cavalry.
"Brother, give the order quickly! I, Guan Yu, will lead the soldiers to kill you."
"Second brother, how can you steal the limelight from me, Zhang Fei? Big brother, I'll go."
"Two worthy brothers, you must not do this. The people in the city are obviously not Yellow Turban rebels, and these cavalrymen are all strong. If we attack rashly, our chances of winning are not high."
After Chen Meng heard the words of Liu, Guan, and Zhang, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. The winning rate is not big, this is no winning rate at all, okay. Our three hundred cavalry are not enough to give the people in the city a beating!
This was the first time Chen Meng met Baima Yicong. The first impression Baima Yicong gave Chen Meng was that he was high-profile, extremely high-profile.
A knight on a white horse, among a thousand cavalrymen, the first thing he sees is definitely this knight on a white horse.
Chen Meng felt that this kind of behavior, on the battlefield, was an act of seeking death. In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, when Pang Tong was on Luofengpo, wasn't it because he rode Liu Bei's Luma and was shot into a hedgehog? On the battlefield
The person who rides on the white horse is not only stupid, but also stupid.
However, when Chen Meng looked at the white horses outside the city, he suddenly wanted to own one. If he rode such a handsome white horse and went to see that beautiful young lady, then...
Gongsun Zan did have a high-profile capital. At this time, Liu Bei was still a white man, and Gongsun Zan had already become a general and a marquis. He also led an elite cavalry that made foreigners fearful, and later became one of the leading warlord separatist forces in the late Eastern Han Dynasty.
Yuan Shao of Jizhou was beaten and was eager to make peace.
Chen Meng looked at Gongsun Zan at the foot of the city, and then at Liu Bei next to him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. This elder brother was a little lonely at this time!
"Brother, are you someone from the city that you don't know?" Chen Meng looked at Liu Bei and asked.
"People under the city?" After Liu Bei finished speaking, he looked carefully outside the city. After looking for a while, he suddenly thought of something and said hurriedly:
"Could it be Gongsun Bogui who is outside the city?"
"Who else can ride on a white horse but Gongsun Zan?"
Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not get Liu Bei's order to attack, so they were naturally a little unhappy. After hearing that Liu Bei knew the people in the city, they immediately understood that today's battle would definitely not be fought.
As soon as the conversation between the four people ended, they heard someone from the city shouting:
"People on the city, listen, I am the general, Gongsun Zan. I heard that there are rebels in Guangyang County, so I led the army from Liaodong to help you and other thieves. Quickly open the city gate and let me wait.
